Hi,
I need some advice on selling a slightly dubious set of names. I have seen recently on this forum the sale of a few celebrities names and have a set of names myself which get good traffic that I wouldn't mind shifting.
Basically I have "thefamouspersonsname".com and co.uk. Both of which I caught when the famous person's agent at the time failed to renew. This famous person has since changed agents, the reason why I am guessing the domains weren't renewed.
I have had them parked at sedo for 6 months and haven't heard anything from this person's agent. They earn OK PPC rev but in a way I'd rather sell even if I only get a few hundred pounds.
My question is: If I just put these on ebay with no reserve ala fabio.co.uk (which I saw here & on ebay) I am OK to do this? The name is not a registered trademark and my expectations are pretty low in terms of what I'm after. What's the best plan of attack? Should I contact this person's people to offer them first refusal before ebaying or would this be unwise from a DRS point of view.
